After announcing the graphics card at CES 2022 and remaining silent in the following weeks, Nvidia has finally shared the price and release date information for its new graphics card, the RTX 3090 Ti, which will be available starting today.
Designed to be the new flagship of the RTX 30 series, the RTX 3090 Ti features 24Gb of 21Gbps GDDR6X memory. Like the RTX 3090 announced a few years ago, Nvidia touts its new high-end GPU as a graphics card capable of gaming in 8K resolution. It claims that the RTX 3090 Ti will allow playing, capturing, and rendering games in 8K HDR with DLSS Ultra performance mode enabled. It will also be compatible with HDMI 2.1.
The RTX 3090 Ti includes 10,752 CUDA cores, 78 RT-TFLOPs, 40 Shader-TFLOPS, 320 Tensor TFLOPs, and like other graphics cards belonging to the RTX 30 series, it uses the Ampere architecture. In other words, it supports real-time hardware-accelerated ray tracing, Nvidia’s DLSS supersampling technology, and a suite of additional RTX apps created by the GPU manufacturer.
As for performance, Nvidia claims that the RTX 3090 Ti will offer “high-end” performance for those looking for a powerful rig. The RTX 3090 Ti will be 64% faster than the RTX 2080 Ti and 52% faster than the Titan RTX. Compared to the company’s previous flagship, Nvidia claims that the RTX 3090 Ti is faster than its (non-Ti) variant by 9%.
The Founder’s Edition of the RTX 3090 Ti will be sold for $1,999 (in the absence of confirmation of the price in our territory). Still, depending on the manufacturer you buy, you will most likely pay more since the price of Nvidia GPUs has risen from its initial price. However, it looks like GPU prices are starting to calm down. Asus announced yesterday that it would lower the costs of its graphics cards by up to 25%. MSI has announced the prices of its RTX 3090 Ti, with three models ranging between $1,999.99 and $2,199.99 (in exchange, from about 1,800 euros to 2,000 euros, approximately ).
Nvidia has warned that GPU availability will be affected due to ” the latest wave of COVID and lockdowns in China.” However, the company anticipates that supply will improve over the next month.
